[Nfb-krafters-korner] Class Ideas

[Denise Shaible]

Lucy,

These are good ideas.  I believe some have already been taught but, as Joyce said at the meeting, there's no harm in repeating classes.

I'd like to suggest a needle knitting project or two.  The first one is a bracelet cuff with beads on it.  The next one is a needle knitted granny square blanket for a baby or adult.

IN addition, I see that there's a class on different stitches for needle knitting and I've signed up for the basket weave stitch class.  I can teach the broken rib stitch or if someone else wants to teach it, they can do it.  It's easy and looks nice.  I'm doing a dish towel and cloth set in it right now.

I'd also like to see some new pony bead and/or safety pin beading classes.  It doesn't seem like we've had any projects in these crafts lately and although safety pin beading is challenging, it's fun.

Regards,

Denise

Hi everyone,

Recently Joyce asked for ideas on classes people would be interested in taking and I put together a few ideas.

With Mother’s Day coming up, maybe a class on soap making would be nice.

Also, learning basket making could be a fun craft that could be used throughout the year.

Pony bead projects are always fun and they are easy too.

A stitch counter bracelet would be helpful for many of us to use in our yarn projects.

For the loomers, how about a blanket or afghan class.

I just returned Tuesday night from the NFB of New York’s legislative efforts in Albany, so I wasn’t able to make the membership meeting. I hope the meeting was productive and I look forward to hearing more about the decisions made.

Take care,

Lucy
